Brief Answer:
Diet and lifestyle modifications

Detailed Answer:
The lab reports of your husband are almost normal and a few labs are in upper limit of normal and not alarming. No medicine is needed to bring these figures down. All your husband needs is slight diet and lifestyle modifications, reducing fatty foods intake, reducing saturated fats and trans fats, preferring fiber and natural fresh fruits and vegetables.
Reducing caloric intake is the key.
I hope it helps.
